Imagine how much better this wood look WITH Brunson and WITHOUT McGee.
Not a finals contender, probably, but also not WORSE than last season.

Gave up a three point play
WE have a plan to increase Josh minutes, just wait up - Kidd

You think he cares? He´s probably already planning what he wants to do in three years when his career is over. They gave him every reason not to care. Dude is not stupid. He knows this was the last NBA contract he´ll ever sign.

Wood was questionable for the game. Injury report mentioend a non COVID related illness. Might explain why he is looking pretty bad today.

Remember when people here were maligning Lauri?
Lauri can actually dribble, a 7 footer has better handles, and can get to the rim with dribble drives better than THJ.
And the Mavs priority were THJ and Bullock LOL.

Yes, I logged in just to note when a coach does something obviously wrong. Why is THJ the defensive substitution at the end of the half, on top of the very strange challenge on the foul call? It’s not that big a deal in the scheme of things but still.

Good to know.
What a relief.
I was thinking he lost motivation.
Seems a step slow, almost McGee like.

There is a difference between lack of touches but at least showing some effort on the boards and todays performance.

Many fans were right on that. Front office was wrong not to get him when he wanted to be in DAL.

Yes and it isn't his lack of touches that I'm talking about. He didn't look like the same player that opened the season, but instead more clumsy, less physical and outworked.

DP will give you effort, that's what's he offers in bunches, sometimes that's almost all one can ask for.. almost.
Speaking of effort, THJ has been trying to get to the rim on this game, with hilarious results.

True, but he doesn't feel Josh Green's presence at all. Some dudes just have your number.

The cruelty of showing a Top 10 Plays of the Week list at halftime that features minimum Biyombo.

Iso McGee. Followed by 3s violation McGee. He gives it. He takes it away.
Luka´s transition defense costs the Mavs at least 10pts per game.

Clarkson Markkanen would be a nice combo to have. They seem to have great chemistry on these cuts.

My Gawd. Get McGee off the floor. He robbed the Mavs blind.

I'm okay with having any of those 2.
But the time to get them has passed. They will cost a LOT.
